Article: New Boyfriend

It was bound to happen someday. I just hoped she would be older when she started noticing boys. (Like 25, maybe?) No such luck! I was strict about my dating rules until a couple of weeks ago. I still keep a very close watch on her when he is around. They can't go to movies alone. I make absolutely no excuses for my constant presence. What's nice is, they don't seem bothered by it. Now I am faced with a 13-year-old who is completely and totally convinced that she is in love. And to be quite honest, I think the boy thinks he is in love with her also. From what she tells me, he writes her sweet notes and tells her his feelings. He stares at her while she talks and his eyes are so focused on her. I have to admit that it has been heartwarming watching them go from pushing and shoving each other around to holding hands and hugging goodbye. They sit close together and watch movies or do their homework. They always have huge smiles on their faces. It's nice to see their happiness.
